Welcome to Mud and Routes
We have more free walking routes in Snowdonia and North Wales than anywhere else, as well as walks in the Lake District, Llyn Peninsula, Brecon Beacons, Peak District and beyond. Start HERE to find walks by area, or search for a walk here. If you’re not sure of your skills, then we’ve got outdoor skills tutorials and articles to make sure you Get Outside. If that’s not enough, you can even submit your own quality walks to the site. We’re not a GPS sharing site, they’re ten a penny, so you’ll need to provide a description or perhaps link to the route on your own website.
